Two Bomb Attacks During Iranian Remembrance of the Death of Soleimani

Bombing occurred near Soleimani's tomb along the memorial route.

As Iranians held a parade in southern Kerman, Iran to mark a remembrance of the death of terrorist Qassam Soleimani, two bombs were detonated, killing 203, and wounding 141. (Breitbart). (Note that Iran is claiming a much higher number, which is more than likely false). Although most media claimed that no group claimed responsibility, a statement reportedly posted by ISIS claimed responsibility for the blasts.

We have written previously about Tehran harboring terror groups, so it is unclear why ISIS would decide to blow up a parade that commemorated Soleimani’s death unless it’s purpose was to blame Israel or the US. The incident does fit the usual pattern of terrorists. The Ayatollah immediately blamed Israel and/or the US for the deaths, which is an uncorroborated belief that does NOT fit the usual pattern. He also immediately stated that there would be a “harsh response” for those who committed the bombings.

Will this presidential election be the most important in American history?

The first bomb Wednesday was detonated around 3 p.m., and the other went off some 20 minutes later, the Iranian interior minister, Ahmad Vahidi, told state television. He said the second blast killed and wounded the most people.

Images and video shared on social media appeared to correspond with the accounts of officials, who said the first blast happened about 700 meters (765 yards) from Soleimani’s grave in the Kerman Martyrs Cemetery near a parking lot. The crowd then rushed west along Shohada Street, where the second blast struck about 1 kilometer (0.62 miles) from the grave.

Iranian Journalist/activist Masih Alinejad state the truth of the matter: Iran is riddled with groups whose desire is to blame Israel and the United States.

Random idiots blamed Israel for the bombings. They also blamed Israel for a strike in Syria last week that killed an Iranian military leader, as well as a US strike in Iraq that killed an Iraqi militia leader -one of the masterminds of the recent attacks on US troops. The US took responsibility for that drone strike. Not to mention that Iraq would very much like to expel the US out of its country (Breitbart). Or the strike against a leader of Hezbollah in Lebanon. These bomb attacks near the tomb of Soleimani are another impetus toward danger.

All of that to say that things appear to be heating up, and there are groups who want it to be off the charts. The best solution is to wipe the terrorists out entirely.
